Sorry to hear about your experience on Frontier. Fortunately, I have never come close to the experience you describe.

I wonder though how your situation might have been improved if you had chosen to respond differently? For example, what if you had said, "I am more than happy to help out the mother and her baby, but as silly as this sounds, I am claustrophobic and cannot sit in a window, or middle seat. Can you locate another aisle seat for me so that I can help this mother?

By responding in the positive, versus the negative, I bet the FA's response would have been completely different and the two brutes would have never harassed you.

Just my two cents.
